Rum
Runner and Black Snake trail top to bottom on Sterling, while two
scenic trails start from the Madonna summit: the Chilcoot and the
Drifter. The Chilcoot winds over the backside of the mountain before
returning to the main face. The Drifter hugs the saddle of the mountain
for views across the chain of the Green Mountains, before opening to
wide meadows and gently gladed areas. All of this is ideal intermediate
skiing but despite the high proportion of this type of trail, there
will still be a lack of mileage for keen piste-bashers intent upon
skiing more than a couple of days at the resort.
